South Carolina's Leading Tackler Out for Outback

[LOLOLOLOLOLOL--OPS]

So I guess the rumors about a star player not being academically eligible for a bowl game were pointing at the wrong school.

The Gamecocks leading tackler, Safety Emanuel Cook, will miss the Outback Bowl.

As stated in the story, he is looking to declare for the NFL.

By missing the Outback Bowl, Cook's draft status will likely rise, since pro scouts won't see him getting Frank Duong-ed repeatedly by Shonn Greene on New Year's Day.

Dammit...

One less DB for the O.B.C. to scrape off of Shonn Greene.

"I'm not doing any good back here."

You’re welcome.

What does it say

when your leading tackler is a safety?

He's apprently a Safety in name only,

and routinely plays more of a “rover” position. Also, we’re all still supposed ot be filled with mortal terror of their LBs, so I’m sure we’ll still lose.

“…Cook might not be the only player to miss the bowl. Several players including middle linebacker Jasper Brinkley, are waiting on grades that will determine their eligibility, sources said…”
